My Crazy Crafty Weekend

I had fun this weekend.  I made a ton of friendship bracelets.  I made an adorable bangle out of a plastic bottle.  And I made a cuff out of the waistband of an old pair of jeans!  Talk about your upcycling!  I am in love with that word, and the entire concept.  Reusing things you already have laying around.  Seriously, the only things I have had to purchase have been accents like buttons, ribbon, and snaps.  It has been awesome!  Even the string for the friendship bracelets was something I had on hand (yes, I keep everything).  :)  Here are some of the goodies I created this weekend.  Enjoy!

Ruffled Upcycled Cuff

Plastic Bottle Bangle

Strawberries & Cream and Orange Dream Friendship Bracelets

Hand Woven T-Shirt Bracelets

Gryffindor & Slytherin Friendship Bracelets

I hope your weekend was equally craftastic!

Love ya,

Cuff Bracelet

Hi All!

I have been sitting on this cuff bracelet for a few days now, but once I showed it to my mom last night she insisted I post it today.

I have a boast a bit now, the majority of the materials I used were old clothes!  The flower and ruffle are both made from old t-shirts, and the cuff itself is from the hem of a pair of pants I cut up to make a skirt (I will show you that tomorrow).  I sewed on some snaps, and fabu ribbon I'd been holding on to, and voila, an adorable cuff bracelet!

Love ya,
